摘要:
An object of the present invention is to reduce the conducting loss of an existing conversion circuit while suppressing its noise. The present invention is typically a circuit arrangement includes at least one switching device and a free-wheel diode connected in parallel with the switching device. The free-wheel diode is formed by connecting a silicon PiN diode in parallel with a Schottky barrier diode that uses a semiconductor material having a wider band gap than silicon as a base material. The silicon PiN diode and Schottky barrier diode are separate chips.

A magnet which includes ferromagnetic powder to be mainly a mother phase containing iron or cobalt. The ferromagnetic powder is provided with a high-resistance layer which has a resistance higher than or equal to ten times as high as a resistance of the mother phase and a Vickers hardness lower than a Vickers hardness of the mother phase. The high-resistance layer is being formed partially or entirely on the surface of the ferromagnetic powder.

A position-data converter and a motor-drive control device are connected. The position-data converter receives two-phase, sine-wave analog signals da and db from two first magnetic detectors, respectively, and converts these signals da and db to position data. On receiving a positioning instruction, the motor-drive control device calculates the value of current, from the current position signal generated by the position-data converter. The permanent magnets incorporated in a linear motor are used as components of a linear scale, as well.

In a conventional hybrid scheme used to mount a rechargeable battery in a motor vehicle, store into the battery the electric power that has been obtained via a regenerative brake, and utilize the power during acceleration of the vehicle, when a temperature rise of the battery due to charging or discharging causes a temperature of the battery to stay outside a defined range, it has been absolutely necessary to stop the battery charge or discharge, and fuel efficiency has decreased. This invention predicts a charge level and temperature of a rechargeable battery from the cruising input/output power requirements calculated from route information and historical records of cruising, prevents a stoppage of the battery by calculating chronological engine output and brake control data for the temperature to stay within a defined range, and hence improves fuel efficiency.

Eddy current generated around a magnetic circuit in an MRI apparatus is one of the causes of deviation from an ideal magnetic field gradient waveform and causes image distortion, loss of strength, ghost generation, loss of signal, and spectral distortion. An object of the present invention is to suppress the generation of the eddy current. In an MRI apparatus, a ferromagnetic material formed from powder is used in a part of a magnetic circuit: the powder mainly comprising a mother phase containing iron or cobalt and showing ferromagnetism; and a high-resistance layer having a resistance not less than ten times as high as the mother phase and a Vickers hardness lower than that of the mother phase being formed in layers along parts of the surface of the powder on parts or the entire of the surface.

A fault detection system detecting malfunctions or deteriorations, which may result in an inverter fault, is provided. The system has a temperature sensor installed on a semiconductor module to monitor a temperature rise rate. It is judged that an abnormal condition has occurred if the thermal resistance is increased by the deterioration of a soldering layer of the semiconductor module or by drive circuit malfunctions and, as a result, the relation between an operation mode and the temperature rise rate falls outside a predetermined range.
